any senator who vote for clot injure is voting to give harry reid -- i hope and believe they -- i hope all 46 senate republicans stand united again cloture on this bill, because no senate republican wants to give harry reid the ability to use 51 votes for fund obam-bama care. >> the way he framed the argument is relatively new. what he is basically saying is, republicans, if you don't stand with me, you're standing with the democrats. this is complicated, and that argument is already not playing with a very important republican, mitch mcconnell. just a couple minutes after i spoke with ted cruz, mitch mcconnell said he would not support the filibuster, will basically not stand with him. that will make ted chris' job a lot harder, but he'll play it out down to the wire, which is a week from today. >>> what a story. all right. thank very much. we'll see what happens. dana, thank you. >>> another big event here in new york, the clinton global initiative. one might argument that hillary clinton is more of an attraction this year than perhaps even her husband. here's our chief correspondent

reid who ultimately put in. it's not a long provision, just five lines. it doesn't specifically say doctors can't ask patients about guns, but it really prevents any kind of data collection, any research, any making gun questioning part of wellness programs, like you might ask about smoke detectors, swimming pools, other things in the home, so it's a significant provision. the nra will say and we've talked to them, if people doctors know they have guns, could it affect their insurance premiums in the long run even though there's been no history of that actually being shown, obviously the people arguing in favor of being able to ask the questions, we need to collect this data to be able to allow guns to be safer. >> so just so i'm clear on this, if a parent comes in, and the kid's been shot, the doctor can't ask the parent if there are guns in the home? >> well, in many states you can ask about the guns, you can't collect the information, write it down specifically so it's not part of the permanent chart the way
